I think the 0-60 timer starts just a tad late, but nonetheless it is still around 2.5 seconds and EXTREMELY quick

BARB LEMME GET THE NEW CORVETTE GOBBLESS

When you put the top in the trunk. Push it in and it clicks in. You don't want to just set the top in as it can bounce around. If you lightly push the top into those brackets it clicks and locks in. Other than that, that thing is mint!!!

I'm extremely impressed at how calculated you were on removing the wrapped from the straw at 26:02 🤣

Stumbled on this channel randomly- and I am really diging it so far. Keep the good content comming. You really found your own good niche 😊

"golfist" is my new favorite word

Crazy how much hate the car gets for just having an additional motor in the front. It’s literally the closest an average person can get to experiencing a Porsche 918 or McLaren P1 and you still get a big OHV V8. I’ve been lucky enough to drive the stingray quite a bit and this thing looks better, is more efficient and has more power. People are so mad that it’s even possible to get better MPG when 99% of the corvette customer base has a set budget just like everyone else. This thing is crazy and I can’t wait to drive one.

Hate clibbins, love Barb.

Keep bringing this day-in-life vids. Love to see the daily drives ❤❤

The Tron sound the E-Ray makes beautiful.

Love the use of the phrase “ shat on the trunk “ in this upload, much enjoyed

TOPHER DRIVES? I BARELY KNOW THE GUY (I wish I did)

Excellent - A really thorough review - Most helpful.

Excellent video / review! I've saw quite a few videos on the E-Ray; all were basically the 'same', other than yours. Your's is more of a true real world review, which I loved. 👍

One of the best attainable sport car to date.

First video i watched of an e-ray. I love it man! Idk if all c8s have the same features but the front end lift and stealth mode among others are really useful. Had a black 94 lt1 6speed for 10 years but just sold it last November. The targa top much more of a pain to remove with the ratchet lol if i ever get the kinda cash to buy one of these i would. Feel like it handles so well with the awd, especially around corners and fast take offs. way different from my 94 and my dads white 79 stingray with t tops. They just keep getting better.

I was just waiting to watch your video on it. Glad it's out

It’s weird watching someone on KZfaq driving around Ypsilanti, MI. Keep up the good work.

It doesn't matter how many KZfaqrs have uploaded reviews of a car. Yours is always my favorite. Daily motor is a closer one, though. Wink

That cockpit looks perfect for the driver!

I DON NEED NO GODDAMN EELECTRIC BATERY, BACK IN MY DAY MY SPORT MODE WAS DOWNSHIFTING TO 2ND. GOBBLESS

Amazing Car! Thanks for sharing.

I know the video is a bit old and you might not see it but huge respect for the owner or you to whoever listened to Lil Peep on Spotify!

Man I did not realize how cool these are

The roof snaps into the mounts in the trunk to help hold it in place too!

it's such a sick car 🔥🔥

a driver focused infotainment is really the only easy way to use a touchscreen in a car imo

A nice video. I'm excited to be seeing my 1st C8 tomorrow. They are a rare car in UK.

24:18 Swearing? On my family-friendly Topher channel? 😂 Lovely video as always. I might need to look into becoming a "golfist", as it sounds pretty fun.

One of the most impressive things about this video is probably how you unwrapped and put that straw in

my favorite C8, yes over a z06. what a sick car

The extra color matching on some of the trim and vents makes it look like someone got carried away with the spraypaint or plastidip.

Love the AWD qualities of the Eray.Truly makes it a friendly year round interstate cruiser over the ZO6. Doesn’t really need a supercharger or twin turbos but those are aftermarket options with AWD grip/safety. I understand the attraction of the cross plane soundtrack(which I need to hear in person)but to me personally,the traditional V8 sounds better…at least on video. You Tube owners of the ZO6 commented that the Eray inspires more confidence in the real world such as a mountain road unlike the ZO6 which is more track focused and may tend to want to spin/kick it’s rear out occasionally if flogged too hard etc. My personal conundrum is of course the price. It is a performance bargain but is one Eray or ZO6 worth more than 3-4 cars worth approx. 50k(minus mods etc.) A C8 Z51(approx 85k) may be the more practical choice but for 114k base…the Eray with its ZO6 body kit,standard carbon ceramic brakes,magneride etc. for 35-40k more does continue to pull at the heart strings. So…3-4 new or one Retirement play toy? A lot of ICE cars will still be made(manual/auto)up until 2035. I plan on acquiring as many as I can afford before the electric golf carts take over…

Might consider getting a Grandsport further down the line once they depreciate a good bit. Love this model

5:50 I have a c8, you’re suppose to click the roof in place brother, otherwise it’ll scratch/damage the roof 😅

Nice review! That stealth mode is an awesome feature! I read a thread (non eray) where the owner feels compelled to do cold starts with the garage door closed (!) and keep it closed… until the car idles down. To avoid irritating the neighbors. Sounds like a risky strategy. That seat being borderline too tight for someone who is essentially a string bean (5’ 11”, 150 lbs) is quite unfortunate for those a bit farther towards the higher end of the Bell curve.

Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray 2024 ... Corvette C8 is a Supercar

Beautiful Color !

car looks great

I personally Vomited after launching the Z06 back to back to back 🤣

i'm 6'3 around 245-250 and it felt comfy to me

so cool this car

Seems like a great motor carriage for golfists.

Don't really care about the hybridization, but I am interested in the AWD. Can't wait to see a winter test.

I can tell you’re in Michigan bc of the roads lmao. The same roads I go down everyday.

MOTDOR WHAT A MACHINE channeling Clarkson lol

With AWD I want to see a winter test.. Different tires and out in the snow…

This car, the E-Ray is Van Halen because it's the Best Of Both Worlds.

That thing does sound cool

I can never get used to that square-ish steering 'wheel'.😂

Good luck to evereryone, because soon is Christmas and I´m happy a lot.

I wish there was a daily driver focused version that swaps that... what was it 150HP electric motor? with, say, 30-50HP motor, and a lower rate, but higher density battery of say 9kWh. With PHEV option that adds another 2-4kWh in that frunk.

Nice!!

Gonna be tough packing that 'vette with stuff from Costco. LOL

Launching the Eray smooth acceleration? My z51 is fast but violent as hell.

that tea looks so tasty and refreshing

What more I like from this car is its design, its performance, its reliability, its dash, anyway everything about this car.

Dream car. Export to Australia, please GMSV 🙏

Why head up display is always blinking? Is it optional?

Love

You know what everyone??? The best cars are built in America.

I remember watching a motorweek reteo vid of them reviewing a 1982 corvette 40-55 mph. And it was 3.2 secs. They said it was very quick. This car does 0-60 MUCH quicker. 2.5 secs. The contrasts is very obvious

What is the MPG if you’re just driving it without trying to do hard pulls

Sounds like sounds pumped through the speakers, specifically that "electric motor" You would hear that no matter how much throttle you gave this thing if it wasn't synthesized.

I go to EMU this whole area is so familiar lol

Whats really the difference between the E-ray, stingray, Zr1 and Z06???? I assume Stingray is the cheaper version, E-ray is better for daily driving it being awd and z06 and zr1 are more track oriented?

I’m buying this next week. I’m just kidding can’t afford it 😢

What's the pull like above 70? That's my biggest gripe with teslas.

Nice interior as usual, but the A-pillar trim looks ancient. Just an observation.

These videos are really intertating.

In the future I would like to see a more aggressive Stealth Mode. I would want to be able to drive with more throttle % before the V8 kicks in, say, to run local errands or something if I don't want to burn gas. This could just be a programming change. And I bet in the future they could upgrade the battery pack so that it's two or more cups of fuel equivalent instead of one cup of fuel or whatever Tadge said it was. No fundamental changes, just some quality of life tweaks.

how do u mount ur camera ?

does this car get the $5,000 hybrid deductible?

Wish those wheels were an option on the Z06.

why cant more normal looking coupes have this future cockpit design, any lexus models or toyota would be so cool. They always make it look so boring, this looks really cool tho.

I don’t know why they don’t offer it in manual. If it had the tremec 7 speed, yes I’d buy one 100%.

Imagine if gm makes a c8 grand sport

2.2 seconds with wheel spin 👀👀

lol I dunno if it’s the lens but the car almost looks like a toy from the distance 😂

The E-Ray is the only Corvette that has extra torque. The zo6 and the base model have the same amount of torque

Does the engine shut off when you come to a stop, and can you creep away in EV while the engine is starting?

Vbox and Draggy showed 3.3 to 3.5 seconds 0-60. Because it doesn't care about the 1 foot roll out. Interestingly the on board timer started after the 1 foot roll out which is why its lying to us. In fact the 1 foot roll out on this was measured at almost 2 feet! Also the Z51 corvette was so much quicker off the line but after it leaves the line and starts accelerating, thats when the e ray very quickly catches it.

You really got into character for this video. Saying motor correctly and making old man noises getting in and out of the car.

You aren’t wrong about this video being old news from a review standpoint, bc people are putting twin turbo on this car making 1000hp

Can you do a 1988 chevrolet monte carlo ss?

dude sounds like Tyler from hoovies garage

Its sideswipe the transformer

Can you still mod this thing?

عند رؤيت تسارع الكورفيت بمحرك 8 سلندر و محرك كهربائي هنا تعرف مدى جودة بورش 911 تيربو اس بمحرك 6اسطوانات وبدون محرك كهرباء ...نفس التسارع

Yeah, my mind is made up. I'm definitely going to get an E-ray, but I will wait for 2025. It will have to be a convertible, though. And forget the all-season tires. Here in Quebec, we have to change to full winter tires in any case, not that I will use this in the winter, so I will opt for full grip summer tires.

I want me some of them Bimbo brakes!

Cool

emileh left me to go get duh groshries, better take the corbette gobbless

It's not ACC so it won't slow down when you got closer to that truck, or is eray ACC?

2.2, yeah, lets see the draggy

No sound system test 😢

V8 Moder

2023 3LT frunk doesn't electronically close like that...

You shouldn’t be able to see your car’s sides in your side view mirror. You already heave a rear view mirror looking straight back. Adjust them further out and no car has a blind spot. ;)

They shouldn't even make a non convertible version of this car because of the wind buffeting. Also of note, if you're looking to get into one of these I highly suggest you take one for a 24 hour test drive, because if you're over 180 lbs man, you'll sit directly on the side cushions/bolsters, which are rock hard btw, I couldn't sit in one comfortably for more than 20 mins, and my back was aching coming out. Seat bottoms need to be wider, unless you sit like a girl with closed legs. I dont recommend these cars, or the c7 Z06 because of the seats.
